About Natalie

ACA counsellor Natalie Janinski has three years' experience supporting people in Australia with stress, anxiety, relationship strain, family issues, trauma and anger. She names experiential therapy and somatic techniques as her main methods and works with concerns such as attachment and abandonment, codependency, dissociation, and eating or food-related issues.

Natalie describes herself as a lived experience practitioner who uses Internal Family Systems and Coherence Therapy alongside somatic tools. She explains these approaches as experiential methods that can change how memories are stored and reduce symptoms like anxiety and people-pleasing. Sessions may include breathwork, mindful focusing, yoga-informed movement and polyvagal techniques depending on need.

Her style favours hands-on, body-aware work rather than only talk. That can mean guided movement, noticing physical responses, and tracking inner parts or memories during a session. Sessions are aimed at practical shifts in day-to-day feelings and behaviours rather than long-term theoretical study.

Natalie also lists a wide range of specific areas she addresses, including control issues, commitment problems, communication problems, guilt and shame, forgiveness and feelings of emptiness. She mentions autism and Asperger syndrome and avoidant personality among focused topics she can engage with.

To start, Natalie asks people to select the See online therapy options button and complete a short matching questionnaire before scheduling a first session. The service uses a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time and fees vary with location.

How her experiential and somatic approaches work online

She names Internal Family Systems and Coherence Therapy as core experiential methods. Internal Family Systems involves noticing and talking with different parts of yourself to reduce internal conflict. Coherence Therapy focuses on changing the emotional memory that drives symptoms, aiming for shifts in how a memory feels and acts in daily life.

She also uses somatic interventions such as breathwork, yoga-informed movement, polyvagal techniques and mindful focusing. These techniques ask you to notice body responses, try simple movement or breathing practices, and use attention to change how sensations and emotions unfold. They are commonly used for anxiety, trauma responses and regulation difficulties.

Choosing an approach is collaborative. The therapist will work with each person to test what techniques help most and adapt sessions to goals and preferences. That may mean mixing experiential processing with body-based practices over a few sessions to find the best fit.

The biography does not list specific online formats. Confirm the current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow brief check-ins when needed. It can also let therapists guide breathwork or mindful exercises and observe how your body responds while you practise skills in real time.
